Even before the end of World War II, in 1945, there were concerns as the Soviet armies captured large sections of Eastern Europe from the Germans. These countries would become a de facto empire as satellite countries with the USSR bloc.
With the end of the war, the lines were drawn between communist states and capitalist states. In the "Cold War" (~1945 to 1989), each side sought to gain some advantage. The weapons included small wars, coalitions, economic and military aid, Propaganda, espionage, and technology.
The US Congress passed laws limiting the activity of the Communist Party in the US, in reaction to Cold War tensions. The Cold War lasted from 1945 to 1991.
Nuclear weapons WERE the cold war. No Nukes, No Cold War.
